520    In 1931, the New York Times hailed Belle Case La Follette 
       as "probably the least known yet most influential of all 
       the American women who have had to do with public 
       affairs." A dedicated advocate for women's suffrage, peace,
       and other causes, she served as a key advisor to her 
       husband, leading Progressive politician Robert La 
       Follette. She also wielded considerable influence through 
       her own speeches and journalism, as when she opposed 
       racism by speaking out against the segregation of the 
       federal government under President Woodrow Wilson. 
       Supported by primary documents and a robust companion 
       website, this book introduces students of American history
       to an extraordinary woman and the era of Progressive 
       reform.
